ACUMEN Magazine is published by Hub Myanmar Company Limited, which is also the publisher of Myanmar B2B Management Magazine. The main objectives of this magazine is to be able to connect Myanmar's Businesses to the World and describe about current trends in Myanmar and many interesting related articles.

In this issue

This issue of ACUMEN looks at these issues in-depth from many different angles. Our cover story takes a close-up look at the social impact of the two Chinese-funded pipelines originating on the Rakhine coast, which – despite the obvious financial benefits to the government that it will bring about – will do little to benefit the people directly affected by their development. We look at the pernicious problem of land speculation – one of the biggest factors limiting foreign investment from coming to Myanmar – and discuss the state of Myanmar’s anaemic capital markets with financial expert Aung Thura, whose work revolves around demystifying Myanmar’s confusing and contradictory financial environment.
